Not on padding. Your CSS is not valid (negative values on padding are not allowed). Negative values /are/ allowed on margins, <http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=b0029> and negative values are sometime used in creating a stacking order, z-index, of absolute positioned elements. <http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/zindex.html> There are a few other instances where negative values are allowed in the CSS2.1, CSS3, specs. Perhaps someone else can point you to them. I am brain dead at the moment. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
